Inspiration

I’ve found that I can be very good at making plans. Plans which are going to help me grow and develop. Be that an exercise plan, a healthy eating plan, travel plans or even plans to achieve my goals. While making plans is all well and good, I’ve also…

I don’t know how the weather is where you are; but right now, my city is in the in-between. Today in particular is grey and cloudy – yet there’s still snow on the ground. The good news? The melt is happening, and brighter days are coming (fun fact: Manitoba…

Okay show of hands, who has already messed up their goals for this year? I’m kidding. Seriously though, as I think back to 2016, all I see are my short comings. As a small business owner, we are constantly trying to be innovative and be better. I want to…

An inspiring space can make work more enjoyable, which is why I’ve pulled together a few home office designs that I’ve been loving lately. From bold colours to funky lighting, these home work spaces have a little bit of something for everyone. Just tell me that you wouldn’t mind…

During the Easter Bank holiday last year, me and my boyfriend took the Eurostar to France for a long weekend away. I had also recently finished my beginner’s French class and I was desperate to test out my new skills. Throughout our trip, we started planning our next holiday…

As a lot of you know (and many of you don’t), I’ve struggled with a severe anxiety disorder for most of my life. For 5-6 of my more recent years, I fell into a trap of agoraphobia, which meant never wanting to leave my house and feeling ill if…

We live in a hectic world. Everyone is so busy and we’re always on the go. Whether it’s work, school, family, friends, or whatever – it seems like a lot of people are so busy that they overlook themselves. They don’t always think about what they’re doing or where…

Forgiving someone, especially a loved one can be challenging to do. Instead of forgiving, we can often spend time talking negatively about a person to others. We can spend even more time replaying a situation in our mind and recalling what specifically was done/said, and possibly thinking about how…

I love this time of year. The leaves, the pumpkins, the cool air, the shorter days…all of it is bliss to me. I love it so much that I changed a flight to China because I realized I wouldn’t be home for Halloween. No way I was missing out! What other time…

It is rather funny to think I used to loathe going to yoga. When I was a teenager, I had more energy than I knew what to do with. So, I gravitated towards cardio workouts like kickboxing and zumba. Thinking back to when I first tried yoga, I remember…

Anxiety can affect all of us; some experiencing it in more extreme forms than others. I could start this post by telling you about all of the mental health statistics and then move onto vague advice from “professionals” who haven’t experienced extreme anxieties themselves, but I’d rather be real…

Even the happiest of people have a bad day. Those days where everything just seems to go wrong, you feel upset for no reason, and/or everything gets on your nerves.
I used to get these days all the time and my anxiety made them even worse. But instead of trying to…

Do you feel as if you’re floating aimlessly through life? Do you agonize over time wasted? You’re not alone and you can fix all of that TODAY. We all have at least one thing that we’re really good at. The problem is that we often waste time not utilizing our…
